Saw you walk in, took my breath away
In that dress, you lit up the place
Every move you made, had me mesmerized
But I didn't know, I'd get caught by surprise
Met you on a Friday night, sparks flew
Thought I was the one for you
Dancing close, feeling so right
But now I see, I'm just in your sight
You said, "We're better off as friends"
My heart dropped, didn't want it to end
I thought we had a chance, girl, what went wrong?
Now I'm stuck in the friend zone, but I'm staying strong
Why'd you leave me here, stuck in the friend zone?
When all I wanted was your heart to call my own
Dancing all night, but now I'm all alone
Why'd you leave me here, stuck in the friend zone?
See you with him, across the floor
Smiling, laughing, but I'm wanting more
You share your secrets, I lend my ear
But I'm just your friend, and it's crystal clear
I wanna hold you, kiss you goodnight
But I'm just a friend, and it doesn't feel right
I thought we had a chance, girl, what went wrong?
Now I'm stuck in the friend zone, but I'm staying strong
Why'd you leave me here, stuck in the friend zone?
When all I wanted was your heart to call my own
Dancing all night, but now I'm all alone
Why'd you leave me here, stuck in the friend zone?
Every moment we shared, I thought it was real
Now I'm left wondering how you feel
Was it all just in my mind?
Or did you never see the signs?
I see you laughing, but it's not with me
Holding hands, where I long to be
You talk about him, I play along
But deep inside, it feels so wrong
Why'd you leave me here, stuck in the friend zone?
When all I wanted was your heart to call my own
Dancing all night, but now I'm all alone
Why'd you leave me here, stuck in the friend zone?
I'm trying to move on, but it's so hard
Everywhere I go, there you are
I thought we had a chance, girl, what went wrong?
Now I'm just a friend, singing this song
